Silvester (New Years) 2011-2012 in Brandis, Germany

Andres birthday is New Years Eve day. So we had a birthday party and then a Silvester party. I baked a few pies and he had never had a pie before.

Gina's little sister Lilou 

I love this girl! I wish she was still with us. We will see her again before we know it though.

Marlon Gina and Lilou's brother

They all live down the stairs from Andres in the same house.

The kids wanted to play secret agent so I gave them a mission to go upstairs, put 6 pairs of socks on and count the stairs wearing the socks. They counted 40.......

Then they had to drink 2 full glasses of water...

And find something red, white and blue.

We played German/English charades until it was time to go outside for some legal illegal fireworks and the new year.

You have to watch the whole video and just imagine how it was for us. We didn't even want to bring to attention that we have a 4th of July.
